Why is the water green? I'm assuming with no sunlight, it can't be algae growth.

Roosters do the fighting, chickens are security guards. Makes sense.

Yet here I am, rather living in a country where I wouldn’t get murdered or robbed in the subway. Or imagine this, American society but with safe subway! But I respect your inability to dream big.

Like most people, I haven't met any mass shooters yet

My friend flips homes to rent out to Section 8 in the southeast and doesn't seem to be a problem. Some residents certainly can cause trouble but that's the general risk of renting out property and it's a small operation.

It’s unfortunate for those business owners but perhaps we should change the buildings in the area into affordable housing instead

> It has been widely believed that the depth to bedrock was the primary underlying reason for the clustering of skyscrapers in the Midtown and Financial District areas, and their absence over the intervening territory between these two areas.[150][151] However, research has shown that economic factors played a bigger part in the locations of these skyscrapers.[152][153][154]

Quarter included for scale.
They did multiple tours per weekend, usually 1-2 dozen per tour, so I'm sure there's some other redditors who can share their experience.

I agree 100%, is beneficial for both the employers and employees . The only people that unfortunately lose in this transactions are business owners near office areas.
